Abstract: A novel sorghum variety designated PH2862FW and seed, plants and plant parts thereof are provided. Methods for producing a plant comprise crossing sorghum variety PH2862FW with another plant. Sorghum seed, plants and plant parts produced by crossing sorghum variety PH2862FW with another plant are described. Methods for producing a plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into PH2862FW include one or both of backcross conversion and transformation. Hybrid sorghum seed, plants or plant parts produced by crossing the sorghum variety PH2862FW or a locus conversion of PH2862FW with another sorghum variety are disclosed.

Abstract: A novel sorghum variety designated XSW5436 and seed, plants, plant parts and plant cells thereof are produced from a cross of inbred sorghum varieties. Methods for producing a sorghum plant comprise crossing hybrid sorghum variety XSW5436 with another sorghum plant. Sorghum variety XSW5436, the seed, the plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and minor modifications of sorghum variety XSW5436 are provided. Methods for producing a sorghum plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into sorghum variety XSW5436 include one or both of backcross conversion and transformation of one or both inbred parents. The sorghum seed, plants and plant parts produced thereby are described.

Abstract: A novel sorghum variety designated XSW5902 and seed, plants, plant parts and plant cells thereof are produced from a cross of inbred sorghum varieties. Methods for producing a sorghum plant comprise crossing hybrid sorghum variety XSW5902 with another sorghum plant. Sorghum variety XSW5902, the seed, the plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and minor modifications of sorghum variety XSW5902 are provided. Methods for producing a sorghum plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into sorghum variety XSW5902 include one or both of backcross conversion and transformation of one or both inbred parents. The sorghum seed, plants and plant parts produced thereby are described.

Abstract: A novel sorghum variety designated XSW4801 and seed, plants, plant parts and plant cells thereof are produced from a cross of inbred sorghum varieties. Methods for producing a sorghum plant comprise crossing hybrid sorghum variety XSW4801 with another sorghum plant. Sorghum variety XSW4801, the seed, the plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and minor modifications of sorghum variety XSW4801 are provided. Methods for producing a sorghum plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into sorghum variety XSW4801 include one or both of backcross conversion and transformation of one or both inbred parents. The sorghum seed, plants and plant parts produced thereby are described.

Abstract: A novel sorghum variety designated PH2873FR and seed, plants and plant parts thereof are provided. Methods for producing a plant comprise crossing sorghum variety PH2873FR with another plant. Sorghum seed, plants and plant parts produced by crossing sorghum variety PH2873FR with another plant are described. Methods for producing a plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into PH2873FR include one or both of backcross conversion and transformation. Hybrid sorghum seed, plants or plant parts produced by crossing the sorghum variety PH2873FR or a locus conversion of PH2873FR with another sorghum variety are disclosed.

Abstract: Two sorghum maternal haploid inducer lines SMHI01 and SMHI02 are provided including seed, plants and plant parts thereof. Methods for producing sorghum haploid embryos using SMHI01 and SMHI02 are also provided. The sorghum haploid embryos produced as a result of the use of either maternal haploid inducer line SMHI01 or SMHI02 may be doubled to produce doubled haploid embryos, seeds, and plants as part of a sorghum breeding program.

Abstract: A novel sorghum variety designated PHLVRZJ and seed, plants, plant parts and plant cells thereof are produced from a cross of inbred sorghum varieties. Methods for producing a sorghum plant by crossing hybrid sorghum variety PHLVRZJ with another sorghum plant and methods for producing a sorghum plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into PHLVRZJ through backcross conversion and/or transformation, and to the sorghum seed, plant and plant part produced thereby are described. Sorghum variety PHLVRZJ, the seed, the plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and minor modifications of sorghum variety PHLVRZJ are provided.

Abstract: A novel sorghum variety designated PHONRMMIT and seed, plants and plant parts thereof. Methods for producing a plant that comprise crossing sorghum variety PHONRMMIT with another plant. Methods for producing a plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into PHONRMMIT through backcross conversion and/or transformation, and to the sorghum seed, plant and plant part produced thereby. Hybrid sorghum seed, plant or plant part produced by crossing the sorghum variety PHONRMMIT or a locus conversion of PHONRMMIT with another sorghum variety.
